If you’ve been reading my blog at all in the last year, you are fairly familiar with the Green Bay Packers’ Offensive Line problems. And our porous line cost us a chance at an overtime playoff victory in Arizona this year. We had a league-leading 51 sacks last year. Fixing it has to be our [...]

I will look for any excuse to talk about football now that the season is over. And there is no better reason than this. Some guy put together a five minute “Ode to Donovan McNabb!” on YouTube.
It basically sums up all the points I’ve made to Wernick for the past ten years. The only [...]

What do you do when you’ve been trapped in your DC apartment for days on end because of the Snowpocalypse/Snowmageddon and can’t make it to your worthless Georgetown Law classes? You read 1,000,000 word articles from The Atlantic, apparently.
And that is exactly what Steve has done. He forwarded me this uplifting piece this morning. A [...]

So, it’s not completely official, but I’m probably moving to Minneapolis in the near future.
I just got a call from The Hittman — he just got an offer accepted on a condo in Minneapolis. And he’s going to be my landlord come March/April once he closes on everything.
I just couldn’t stand to be away from [...]

It’s been less than 36 hours since the 2009-2010 NFL Season ended and I’m already going into withdrawal. So, I have to get my fix by putting together a quick preview for next year. It’s never too early.
Sportsbook.com has futures for next year’s Championship Games and Super Bowl. That’s enough for me to put together [...]

I always find too many informative political and economic articles to share, so I’ll select a few and throw them all in to one post of important stuff you should read to get your week started:
1. Maybe we shouldn’t be blaming our leaders for not being able to lead:
A thought-provoking read from Slate.com: Down With [...]

It’s been a while since I’ve posted my full weekly NFL preview column on here. But it’s the Super Bowl, so I figure I might as well go out of the football season with one last big push. I have some recap stuff to get to once the season is completely over, and I will [...]

I don’t think I can technically say ‘Super Bowl’ in this post without Rodger Goodell coming in the middle of the night and murdering my first born, but I’ll risk it.
For the unfamiliar, my college buddy, Evan (who rides the coattails of his sister’s ‘Say Yes to the Dress’ fame), lives in Miami and claims [...]

Because one can never get enough football stuffed into one week, even Mental Floss is throwing together Super Bowl related brain games for us. It’s been a while since I’ve posted a brain game, but this one is fun, and doable. Enjoy.
Today’s Brain Game offers twelve anagrams of various football player positions; think tailback or [...]

My Super Bowl picks and props will come later, but for now, a quick note on two commercials to potentially look forward to this Sunday:
I) Brett Favre is apparently moving out of his comfortable shell made of Wrangler jeans and Sears TVs to pitch Hyundais.
Rumor has it that he’ll be mocking his age as the [...]
